Lets's calculate LCM of 992,358
2 | 992, 358 |
496, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 496 x 179 = 177568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/177568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6420/992,7631/358 is 1/177568
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 992,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(992,358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(992,358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(992,358) = ( 992 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(992,358) = 355136 / 2
LCM(992,358) = 177568
